Description

The Elan Ripstick 86 TW ski is part of the brand's all-mountain women's range. It's designed for exploring the entire mountain without limitations. Whether on groomers or in the backcountry, the Ripstick 86 TW is a balanced and enjoyable ski with smooth glide in any conditions.

What is the Elan Ripstick 86 TW ski made for?

With an 86 mm waist width, synonymous with versatility, this ski performs well on groomed snow, powder, spring slush, or crud. Its double rocker (tip and tail) enhances float in powder and makes initiating turns easier, making the ski quite easy to handle and relatively forgiving. The wood core construction ensures excellent stability and enough rebound to add some rhythm to your skiing, allowing you to up the pace. The traditional camber maximises this stability and allows the ski to grip on hard snow, and the camber combined with the flat tail provides precise turns and a lot of control. There really isn't much this ski can't do.

Who is the Elan Ripstick 86 TW ski aimed at?

The Ripstick 86 TW is aimed at intermediate to advanced female skiers who have already mastered the basic techniques and wish to progress on all types of terrain. This model is perfect for those who enjoy navigating between groomers and backcountry, and who are looking for a ski capable of supporting their progression by offering both support and agility.

Tips and advice

How to choose the length of your skis?

How to choose the size of your piste and all-mountain skis?
On glisshop.co.uk, you may feel overwhelmed by the amount of products we sell. How can you find the right skis, which ones can suit your level, your style or your budget?

Your options: 

1. The advanced search engine: You'll find it everywhere on our website, as a sidebar on our listing pages. It allows you to select conditions and refine your selection: brand, level, style, etc. When you select them, only the relevant products will show. 

2. You can contact us on the 020 3129 3301: skis feature fine technologies and affect your safety. It is important to make sure that the skis you've selected will suit you. Call our landline and get in touch with our team for any questions regarding these products. 

During the process or your order, we'll ask you to complete a form about the mounting of your bindings. With these details, we will be able to mount the bindings with the correct settings. The release value of the bindings is set by a professional skiman, and according to the norm AFNOR FD S 52-748.

If you don't have your own ski boots when you order, the bindings will be pre-mounted. The final settings can be done :

- by a shop if you are renting your ski boots

- by our skiman : you can call us for any technical questions. Our skiman will do the final settings for you. Telephone : 020 3129 3301

All skis you purchase on our website are factory-waxed and tuned. This means they are ready to hit the slopes. However, gear tends to wear and in order to keep it in its best shape, you need to maintain base and edges on a regular basis.

Maintaining your skis is essential for a smooth glide and a solit grip. Frequency of maintenance may vary depending on how often you use your skis, or on how damaged they are. We recommend you to wax them every 10 riding days and at the end of the season. Edges need to be tuned up to 2 times per season if you want to keep a good edge control. However, don't overdo it. Tuning is basically scraping off material. If you do it too often, the edges will vanish after some time.

When your base is damaged and shows shallow scratches or rock gouge, it is possible to repair it.

You can get these repairs done by professional ski shop, or if the gouge is only superficial you may repair it yourself. To do so, you will need special tools and materials such as wax, Ptex for repairing bases, edge sharpeners, etc. You can find them on our website.

All products benefit from a manufacturer guarantee, as long as the damage is caused by a manufacturing defect (may it be hidden or obvious).

Usually, the manufacturer guarantee lasts two years.

Only the manufacturer is able to decide if there has been a 'manufacturing defect' or a 'misuse'. Glisshop is only an intermediary between you and the manufacturer.

The manufacturer's guarantee will not apply if the problem comes from a misuse.
